How is the unusual-posting signal calculated?

For available fields only, each review receives 30 points for under one hour of playtime, 20 for text under 50 characters, 15 for fewer than five owned games, 25 for over 100 authored reviews, and 10 for zero helpful votes. The page displays the average across retrieved reviews and does not fill missing fields with zero or estimates.

How often is this ranking updated?

Rankings change when a publishable analysis is added or updated. The site does not continuously recrawl every review.
